IT was sad naval procession that
sailed into Provincetown, Mass, g.
few days ago. There were five fishing
boats in line and each one had flag
at half-mast in memory of some mem
Der Of it's crew. One vessel had lost
three men, another two, and each of
the others one When the vessels were
seen in the harbor the bells of the
churches were tolled and all the peo-
pie went down to the wharveg to well
come these who bad returned with
their lives. The life of bank fisher
man is one of endless danger. Hun
dreos of men are lost every year in
the terrible storms and fogs off New

ACCORDING to the latest estimates
of the Department of Agriculture the
aggregate yield of the three leading
cereal crops-corn, wheat, and oats
will be about ,55O,OOO,OOO bushels
this year. Of this total 100000
600 is corn, 45O,OOO,OOO wheat and
6OO,OOO,OOO oats. In only three
years of the past ten has there been
a smaller production of these three
cereals taken together. In 1878 the
total was 1922, 100000, bushels; in
1881, 1894, 700, 900 and in 1883, g.
543,OOO,OOO. It is well to bear in
mind, however, that the earlier esti
mates of the government statistician
are usually lower than the later ones.
Two months ago the VIII eat yield was
put at Alt, 100000 bushels, which is
100000 below the present esti-
mate. 1t is not altogether improba-
BILE, therefore, that the corn crop, g.
month or two hence, will be placed at
higher figures than those here given.

Wreck of the Propeller Vernon in Lab
Michigan

Wreck of the Propeller Vernon in Lake
Michigan.
The passenger propeller Vernon was
wrecked in the terrible gale that swept
Lake Michigan on the 29th and her en-
tire crew of twenty-five persons, land the
passengers, whose number is unknown,
are supposed to have been lost. 1t in
wolves larger loss of life than in any
of the previous disasters on the lake
this season, not excepting the propel-
Ter Champlain which burned early in
the spring off Frankfort, Mich, when
over twenty persons persisted. A most
singular coincidence is that the Vernon
was the vessel which took the place of
the Cham plain on the Northern Michi-
gan line, and had only been on the line
since August /. She was one of the
finest furnished passenger boats on the
lakes, and bad valuation of $75 900.
Capt. Moran, of the steamship Su-
perlor, which arrived at Milwaukee the
same night, brought the first news of
the wreck. He says that during the
gale, while his own vessel was wallowing
In the trough of the sea on account of
the breaking Of her steering gear, large
amount of wreckage was seen, and they
also passed two RATS containing one man
each, and small boat containing one
woman and three men. These showed
signals of distress, but Capt. Mo-
ran was unable to aid them
owing to the disabled condi-
ton of his own vessel. Among the
wreckage which Capt. Moran, Of the
Superior, saw were two brackets about
two by three feet, with scroll work in
the center, and painted an old-gold
color. Recognizing those as similar to
tho Opoc oorr;oH NV tho Nornnn nnlU
furnished the first clue to the identity
of the vessel.
The following day pilot house bear
ing the name Vernon was picked UP by
a tug off Manitowoc, which leaves nc.
doubt as to the identity ofthe wreckage
and it appears certain that all on DO lrd
were lost. The Vernon is believed to
have carried crew of twenty-siX men,
and is known to have had on board at
least four passengers, making the total
loss of life at least thirty.

CHICAGO, Oct. 28.-Health-O officer De
Wolf sent the following telegram to Sur
geon-General Hamilton this morning:
st have found thirteen of the immi-
grants referred to yesterday. All well.
1 have found eight packing cases and six
bundles of bedding and clothing all
packed within twenty-one miles of Paler-
mo and not opened at New York. | shall
disintect or burn. In view OF the above
facts, and the experience of 1873, what
value has the statements of the New
York quarantine officers that no danger
was to be apprehended from the indie
pendente ?"
In 1873, to which the doctor refers,
the New York officers did precisely the
same thing as in this instance. Some of
the immigrants at that time drifted to
New Orleans and others to Minnesota,
and cholera broke out the following
spring, caused by the clothing. Dr. De
Wolf says the United States authorities
should take hold of the matter. The
other Italians have not been found.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 27.-The health
department is excited over the arrival
in this city Of forty immigrants from the
cholera-infected italian ports. They
were passengers on the independents,
and went on through to Colorado. This
morning another batch arrived and
some left for the West later in the day.
The others are supposed to be in the
city, and the health department is try
inc to locate them

In marked contrast with the glaring
circulars of land agents and railway
officials, the governor of Wyoming
Territory publishes some cold facts
concerning the cattle industry in that
section. The governor notes the de-
cadence of the cattle business as COM
pared with former years, and admits
that the hard winters and scarcity of
food are bringing about the result of
confning the cattle more to one To-
cality, where they can be sheltered
and fed during the winter. When the
cattle became partially domesticated,
and are cared for in a. humane, ra-
tional manner, Wyoming may carry
more stock than ever. This sounds
reasonable, admitting at the same
time that bowling northwesterly
gale, with the thermometer below
zero, is just as uncomfortable for un-
protected cattle in Wyoming as it
would be on the shady side of the
White Mountains in the month of
January.

RIGHTS OF s0UATTERs.

Sparks Tells How Settlers on Forfeited
Indemnity Lands May Secure Title.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. 29.-In the
light of the tremendous agitation in the
Northwest over the conflicting claims Of
squaHers and purchasers of railroad in.
demnity lands, letter received to-day
from and-Commissioner Sparks is of
special Importance as it puts the depart
ment on record as recognizing the rights
of purchasers. Mr.. Sparks says that an
actual settler on restored railroad lands,
who holds deed from the railroad COM
pany. can secure title from the
government under the pre-emption or,
homestead laws, provided that he has
not exhausted his privilege Hereunder
and that the lands are open to settle
ment. Under these conditions, bona
fide purchasers of the railroad company,
if qualified as to citizenship, their heirs
or assigns, may make payment to the
United States for such lands at the ordi-
nary government price for like lands,
and receive patents therefor.

900 gallons of wine are annually made

DEAD IN A SHOE-BOX.
A Mysterious Murder Discovered on
New York Freight Train.

New York Freight Train.
ELMIRA, n. Y, Oct. 29.-Conductor
Raymond, of the Lehigh Valley wild
train, reported at an early hour this
morning the finding of mans dead
body on board his train. The body had
been cut to pieces and packed into a
shoe-box. All evidences indicate that
the package was put on board the train
at Elmira.
The remains are those of a middle
aged man. The box was badly splattered
with blood, showing that the corpse nad
been put in very soon after the crime.
The arms and legs had been cut off, in
order to allow the packing in the short
box. A coroner was called from Waver-
ly and the body was taken off the train
at South Waverly.
James Gray, of Gilletts, Pa, left his
home a few days ago and has not been
seen since by his relatives. His wife
was in Elmira yesterday looking for him,
and said that when he left home he
carried $500 with him of back pension
money just received, and he came to
Elmira to buy suit of clothes. Whether
the body is that of the missing man is
not vet known.

VICTIM OF A BOMB.
The Wife of Il Brooklyn Merchant Fatally
Hurt by an Internal Machine.

New YORK, Oct. 29.-About 10 o'clock
last night young man II years old,
dressed as telegraph messenger, pre-
scented himself at the residence of Jo-
seph Wecbsler, of the dry goods firm of
Wechsler & Abrahams, 1926 Washington
Avenue, Brooklyn. To the servant who
opened the door he handed small
package addressed to Mr.. Wechsler.
Mrs. Wechsler opened it and found two
small boxes, one of which was made of
paper and the other Of wood. The latter
had sliding top and she attempted to
open it. There was sudden explosion.
The servants rushed into the room and
found Mrs. Wechsler in terrible condi-
ton. Her face and hands were badly
lacerated and she was almost blinded.
Her son, too, was in agony from the
pain caused by decorations of his face
and hands. The faces of Mrs. Wechs-
Ter and her son were filed with small
pieces of metal. TIE boy, while painful
ly hurt, is not considered to be in any
danger, but in the case of Mrs. Wechs-
Ter it is reared her death is certain. The
most careful examination failed to dis
close where the explosive and the
pieces of metal were kept. The only
explanation offered is that some chemi-
cal has been used, of tremendous force.
There is no clue to the perpetrators of
the outrage, and no reason is known for
an attempt on the life of Mr.. Wechsler.

may be imported under contract to
perform labor in any new industry
